[it_waaznt_me]

The final major pre-release of Windows Vista—Release Candidate 1 (RC1)—is now available for priority access by Customer Preview Program (CPP) participants only. If you registered for this program in June, please look for a recent e-mail message from Microsoft (sent in early September) with information regarding RC1. If you are not registered but would like to receive Windows Vista RC1, the CPP will open to new participants in the coming weeks. Please check this site periodically for updates.

A small hitch has cropped up in Microsoft’s beta-testing program for Vista: the software giant has temporarily run out of product keys ...

By the time u would have finishd it in ur dialup...M$ would have released the official version or they would have gone for their nxt big OS or some grt adventure

[hemant_mathur]

Hey Naveed u can order the dvd kit directly from MS directly once the CPP opens up shortly.

[sourav]

can't we update Windows Vista Beta 2 RC 1??

[nishant_nms]

if u have got Beta 2 then u can update it to RC 1. But u first need to update the Beta 2 intallation through windows update. Then u may go for upgrading it to RC 1.
